Aim To explore the predictive value of serum free triiodothyronine(FT3)on the long-term prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods All the subjects were from a prospective cohort study(PRACTICE study).In this study,15 250 patients with coronary heart disease after PCI in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University were selected,and the clinical data,FT3 and creatinine were collected.All the subjects were followed up regularly,and the primary follow-up endpoints were all-cause mortality and cardiogenic mortality,the secondary endpoints were major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events(MACCE).According to the admission criteria,3 109 patients were finally in-cluded in this study.According to the baseline value of FT3,patients were divided into normal FT3 group(FT3:3.65～6.8 pmol/L,1 446 cases)and low FT3 group(FT3＜3.65 pmol/L,1 663 cases).Kaplan-Meier analysis was used for survival analysis,and Log-rank test was used for survival comparison.Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to e-valuate the risk factors of the follow-up results of the two groups.Results Compared with the normal FT3 group,all-cause mortality and cardiogenic mortality in the low FT3 group increased significantly(P＜0.05).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cumulative risk of all-cause mortality and cardiogenic mortality increased in the low FT3 group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that the risk of all-cause mortality increased by 1.639 folds in the low FT3 group(HR=2.639,95％CI:1.385～5.348,P=0.007),while no statistical difference was found in cardiogenic mortality after adjusting for multiple factors(P=0.125).Conclusion The decrease in serum FT3 levels has important predictive value for all-cause mortality after PCI in patients with coronary heart disease.

Aim To investigate the role and mechanism of KLHL21 gene in myocardial infarction(MI)of mice.Methods KLHL21 gene knockout(KO)mice were generated using CRISPR/Cas9 technology,and C57BL/6 wild-type mice were used as controls.Sixty KLHL21 KO mice and 60 wild-type mice were randomly divided into four groups:WT+Sham group(n=30),WT+MI group(n=30),KO+Sham group(n=30)and KO+MI group(n=30).Postoperative is-chemic and infarct areas were assessed using TTC and Evans Blue staining,myocardial injury markers were measured by ELISA,cardiac function was evaluated by ultrasound,and histological changes were examined using HE and Masson stai-ning.Western blot was used to detect proteins related to the nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.Results KLHL21 protein expression in the myocardial tissue of KO mice was significantly lower than that in WT mice.The infarct area in KO+MI mice was significantly larger than that in WT+MI group.KO+MI mice showed reduced cardiac function compared with WT+MI mice.HE staining revealed myocardial cell loss,liquefactive necrosis,nuclear fragmentation,and significant neutrophil infiltration,while Masson staining showed aggravated fibrosis in KO+MI group.Serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),creatine kinase-MB(CK-MB),and cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ)lev-els were significantly increased in KO+MI mice compared with WT+MI mice.Western blot analysis showed increased lev-els of phosphorylated inhibitor of nuclear factor-κB alpha(p-IKBα),P65,and P50,and decreased nuclear factor-κB al-pha(IKBα)in KO+MI mice.Conclusion KLHL21 gene plays a preventive role in myocardial infarction in mice,possibly through inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway activation.

Objective:This study empirically analyzes the relationship between outpatient and inpatient services under the impact of healthcare payment reform,and evaluates the effects of the reform.Methods:Data from healthcare services and basic medical insurance payments in eight districts of Jinhua City from 2020 to 2022 were used.A fixed-effects model for outpatient and inpatient services was constructed to analyze the impact of healthcare payment reforms and outpatient services on inpatient services.Results:The DRG-based payment had a significant positive effect on inpatient visits and a significant negative effect on employee basic medical insurance inpatient costs.The"capitation+APG"outpatient payment policy had a significant negative effect on inpatient visits and a significant negative effect on residents'basic medical insurance inpatient costs.The interaction between outpatient payment and outpatient visits had a significant negative effect on employee basic medical insurance inpatient visits,while the interaction between outpatient payment and outpatient costs had a significant negative effect on both overall and employee inpatient costs.Conclusions:The DRG payment reform led to an increase in inpatient visits and a reduction in employee basic medical insurance inpatient costs.The outpatient"capitation+APG"payment reform reduced inpatient visits and lowered residents'basic medical insurance inpatient costs,thereby slowing down the complementary effect between outpatient and inpatient services.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of linked color imaging (LCI) for the colorectal polyp detection, especially detection of adenoma.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the patients who underwent LCI or white light imaging(WLI) mode of LASEREO colonoscopy from May 2018 to March 2019.The differences of the detection rates in the global polyps, adenomatous polyps, flat polyps, small polyps (≤5 mm) and right-sided polyps under two modes were compared. Color differences between the adenomatous polyps and surrounding mucosa (ΔE) were examined under two modes, based on L *a *b * color space by the Commission Internationale de L′Eclairage in 1976. Results:The global polyp detection rate, especially adenoma detection rate, in LCI group was higher than that in WLI group(45.53% VS 32.83%, P=0.038; 53.65% VS 39.62%, P=0.009). The color difference(ΔE) between adenomatous polyps and surrounding mucosa in LCI group was significantly higher than that in WLI group(27.24±8.67 VS 15.28±6.68, P<0.001). In addition, the detection rates of flat polyps, small polyps and right-sided polyps in LCI group were higher than those in WLI group (61.98% VS 47.17%, P=0.005; 60.94% VS 42.77%, P=0.001; 45.83% VS 32.70%, P=0.012). Conclusion:LCI can effectively improve the colorectal polyp detection rate, especially adenoma detection rate, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To study the effect of electroacupuncture on repair of spinal cord injury and its effect on somatosensory evoked potential ( SEP) in dog models of intervertebral disc prolapse. Methods Nine Beagle dogs were randomly divided into three groups. In the model group and electroacupuncture group, the dog disc prolapse models were made by balloon compression, and in the electroacupuncture group, electroacupuncture was used every day for 14 days after operation. The model group was not treated after surgery. Sham operation was performed in the control group. Each dog was scored according to the Texas Spinal Cord Injury Scale for Dogs (TSCIS) scores before surgery (day 0) and on days 1, 4, 7, 14 after surgery. At the same time, SEP wave was measured using an EMG Evoked Potential Measuring Systerm and its latency and amplitude were analyzed. Results There was a significant difference in TSCIS scores between the model group, electroacupuncture group and control group at 1 day after operation. There was a significant difference between the electroacupuncture and model groups at 14 days after surgery. The amplitude of SEP in the model and electroacupuncture groups was significantly different from that in the control group at 1 day after operation, and there was a significant differ-ence between the electroacupuncture and model groups at 14 days after operation. There was a significant difference in the latency of SEP between the model and electroacupuncture groups at 4 days after operation, and between the electroacupunc-ture and model groups after at 14 days after operation. Conclusions Electroacupuncture can effectively promote healing of spinal cord injury in dogs with intervertebral disc prolapse, improve the TSCIS scores, restore SEP waveform, shorten the latency and enhance the amplitude. SEP can reflect the degree of spinal cord injury to a certain extent, and can be used to evaluate the effect of electroacupuncture treatment in these dogs.
